You could limit it to say pre 1990 motors. Maybe a stock carb and ignition rule might be in order too and that would be easy to police in a 'self policeing' class.

One of the best things about buckets is the underlying rules are quite restrictive but once you over that anything goes. Of all the hundreds of engines built and are eligible only a few are reall good buckets
MB FXR CBR KE TS always something getting in the way of being perfect, shitty gear ratios, feeble clutch, weird porting, too rare. the rules are great that they seem to limit the perfect storm. Some pretty amazing engines still keep turning up though

Problem with MX bikes is they get raced till they aren't competitive & then trail ridden & then sold on & thrashed in a field until they are shrapnel. You have to buy a going bike to get a good engine. That can be expensive & other components aren't useful sizes for buckets. I couldn't tell a 1990 from a 2005 engine.

If it seems like sooo much pissing around and $$ spading a chick and taking her out for dinner and listening to her boring waffle to get her to perform the same function as a wank...

So, you're saying that bucket racers are not wankers?

There are only two types of men in this world my friend...Wankers, and Liars!

Yeah but wouldnt it be better if you could just spend a little bit and get something thats ready to go without having to do all the spade work? Oh wait....

Plenty of GLs out there. This is (I think) the engine that the luncheon is copied from. They go quite well when pedaled hard. Guy up here has just built his own lattice frame for one.
